Of the four radii which passed through the entire cranial cavity in fourteen male skulls 

 in the Table, the basi-perpendicular was in six somewhat the longest, in four it was equal 

 with the basi-bregmatic, and in three somewhat less than the basi-bregmatic. The 

 difference between the basi-perpendicular and the basi-bregmatic radii was so slight 

 that the basi-bregmatic may be regarded as expressing in the mean the height of the 

 cranium. The long diameter from the basi-perpendicular to the occipital pole was 

 much less than from the perpendicular to the glabella or to the most projecting part of 

 the vault of the frontal. The basi-lambdal was always less than the basi-bregmatic, 

 and the basi-occipital was the shortest of the four radii which traversed the supra- 

 tentorial part of the cavity. 



When longitudinal and mesial sections were made through the skulls the length and 

 the height of the supratentorial, or cerebral, part of the cavity could be precisely measured, 

 but in skulls where a tracing of the contour has been made these dimensions could 

 only be approximately estimated by deducting from the tentorial diameters as many
